Pretty sure the ladybirds are japanese- I picked up a couple of yards in pink to make a dress for my daughter while in Tokyo this year. Whereabouts in melb did you buy the Fumika Oishi flowers- I love them!

Rita you amaze me with the way you can pull fabrics of different colors, patterns, textures and companies together. I don't know how you do it but every single time they look fabulous. I wish I had a little of that gene in me.
